The collapse of the Soviet Empire led many to think communism and perhaps socialism were no longer relevant to the modern world. This title presents a balanced argument for the validity, or not, for two of the most important political philosophies of all time. It seeks to reinterpret their philosophies and analyzes the dynamic between Hegelian and Marxist thought. The final chapter also theorizes the possible future for Hegel and Marx in the 20th century.
